My Little Pony - A Very Minty Christmas

22 reviews
Chiara Zanni, Kelly Sheridan

Paramount, 2005

A Sweet and Fun Christmas Movie for All Ages
My Little Pony - A Very Minty Christmas is a great holiday movie overall. The songs have that old fashioned holiday spirit charm (with the exception of the fun "Socks" song). The movie is about one clumsy little pony who breaks the beacon of their Christmas celebration, the "Here Comes Christmas Candy Cane" which guides Santa to Ponyville every year. With that broken and the threat of no ...

The Eiger Sanction

43 reviews
Clint Eastwood, George Kennedy

Universal Studios, 1998

5-star movie, but...
Great movie, one of my favorites. Clint is always enjoyable in these roles. The DVD has one annoying aspect, however, common to many DVDs produced before the era of HD -- when viewed on an HD player or up-converting DVD unit via Component or HDMI inputs, the movie is presented as letterbox inside of a 4:3 format. On a wide screen HDTV this means that the picture is significantly inset and ...

Angel-A

Jamel Debbouze, Rie Rasmussen

Sony Pictures, 2007

A Master Class On Every Level
An EXQUISITE and deeply moving film and an absolute master class in black and white cinematography, all thanks to genius director Luc Besson and his right arm, cinematographer Thierry Arbogast. Toss in two delicately nuanced, courageous, sometimes funny and always heartbreaking performances by Jamel Debboule and Rie Rasmussen and you're left with something very, very distinctive. The ...

Barbie of Swan Lake

Kelly Sheridan, Mark Hildreth

Lions Gate, 2003

Surprisingly wonderful!
Nonna (grandmother) bought this video on impulse because it was on sale and she wanted to give my 3 year old something more to unwrap for Christmas. I thought I was going to die when I saw "Barbie". How annoying would this be? But to my pleasant surprise, it is actually very good! Not only is the story fairly representative of the real Swan Lake ballet, but because it is uses the same musical ...

To Grandmother's House We Go
This movie was exactly as advertised. Still in the shrink wrap and plays without a glitch. My granddaughter loves this movie and plays it over and over. Well worth the price.

Gary Cooper, Marlene Dietrich

Universal Studios, 2006

Good quality for a great price
I was suspicious of the 3 DVD package at first - thinking that the quality would be lacking. However, I was pleasantly surprised that all the films were from very good quality prints. The package is clearly worth double the price. It's true - there are no extras, but that doesn't bother me. This is a great value for outstanding entertainment & a must have for any Marlana Dietrich fan! Now, if ...

One Touch of Venus

Ava Gardner, Robert Walker

Republic Pictures, 2008

A memory from the past
I think I was about 15 when I saw this on TV and for the past 40 years wanted to see it again. It was quirky, but I was so glad to be able to see it. There are several movies that I hope are brought back, just because they were enjoyable.

Ghost World

Thora Birch, Scarlett Johansson

MGM (Video & DVD), 2002

The hollow women
Touted as a film on "over 140 Top Ten Lists" and "Best Film of the Year," "Ghost World" really works. The fact that I had to watch it twice just to finish it doesn't mean much. I fell asleep the first time. I was tired and the movie was boring. Nix that. Because I was tired, the movie was boring. The second time I was totally alert to this film rife with meaning. Enid (Thora Birch) and Rebecca ...

Foxy Brown

55 reviews
Pam Grier, Antonio Fargas

MGM (Video & DVD), 2001

Pam Grier kicks butt again.
Pam is definitely hot and bad once again in this film title. She's taken down the mob along with some mean dudes. At the end, the white guy gets his pecker cut off with a big old 6 inch knife. And the way she gave his girlfriend that pickle jar with his anatomy in it was funny as hell. They really should have never killed Foxy's man and her brother. I'm really glad that Pam Grier's movies have ...

Stranger from Venus

Patricia Neal, Helmut Dantine

Image Entertainment, 2000

WARNING - DO NOT EXPECT A LOT OF SPECIAL EFFECTS !
I don't know I could be wrong, but it seems to me that movies made today require a ton of special effects ( especially in the Sci Fi - Fantasy genre ) to keep an audience interested. Nothing wrong with this though, as I myself enoy a little escapist entertainment as much as the next person. Having said that though I must confess that it is my opinion that good writing and acting will win out over ...

Peter O'Toole, Leslie Phillips

Miramax, 2007

So much more than mere sentiment...
I admit; I have no idea why I saw this movie. The film didn't look appealing to me and the accolades it racked up I just chucked up to pure sentimentality, especially when in regards to Peter O'Toole's Oscar nomination. The film came on Cinemax the other night though, and so I decided to give it a try. Wow. I will never just automatically dismiss anything as pure sentiment again, for ...

Escaflowne: Anime Legends Complete Collection

19 reviews
Maaya Sakamoto, Tomokazu Seki

Bandai, 2006

The Best Anime Of All Time?
Regarding Escaflowne being the best, I cannot say that it IS the best. But rather, floating near the top of my top 5-10 of the many, many animes that I have watched. There have been some times where upon finishing a series or a movie, I would get a bit disappointed that there would be no more. After watching Escaflowne, I had felt it. It is hands down far out. The storyline had me bedazzled ...

Rhino Theatrical, 2006

Beast Machines: Not as Great as Beast Wars, but still Extremely Entertaining
Now I know that fans usual don't care for Beast Machines and I respect them for their own opinion but to me...this series is great! Yes, it isn't quite as great as Beast Wars but it is close. The storylines and characters are memorable and the action is great as usual...especially when it comes totechno-organic beings slugging it out with one another. Episode One- The Reformatting Episode ...

Watch the Skies! (The Cosmic Man / The Flying Saucer / Stranger From Venus)

Patricia Neal, Helmut Dantine

Image Entertainment, 2006

COSMIC BARGAIN!!!
This is a GREAT BARGAIN PACK of Image 1950's sci-fi dvds...The transfers are wonderful! COSMIC MAN looks just like it did when I saw it at the theater eons ago!!!...& it is my favorite of the three. FLYING SAUCER is a little slow with not much happening, but this is a VERY EARLY entry into the sci-fi genre & STRANGER FROM VENUS is kind of a remake/take-off on THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL, as is ...

Fascinating and disturbing.
I saw this in 1990 in the theatre and rewatch it every year because of the unique people and infectious quotes. Love it!

Delta of Venus

Audie England, Costas Mandylor

New Line Home Video, 2003

Nin would be happy with this film
Although it does not follow the book, the essence is there. The cinematography is rich and lush, with a sensual and erotic feel. The music is evocative of the period, and in its self moves the movie forward, the sound track would be worth owning. The cast melds, meshes and melts together. This really is a picture about a woman's inner thoughts and fantasies, it is not a pornographic film at ...
